Question

I just installed CakePHP 2.2.10 on my local host. I made all the necessary changes in the documentation. I created the database file, changed the security salt and the cipher seed, etc. However When I access the CakePhp folder through WAMP, I’m getting the following message:

URL rewriting is not properly configured on your server.

I did some of the create a blog tutorial from the documentation and when I go to localhost/cakephp2/Posts/ the browser shows: “The requested URL /cakephp2/Posts/ was not found on this server.”

Any insight into what I should do? I’m really used to codeIgniter, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about cake and want try them out.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

That’s most likely because you do not have mod_rewrite enabled.
Make sure it’s enabled by checking the image below.
